River: A body of water bearing the same name for its course
River system: A system which consists of at least two rivers. There are, however, requirements for this:
A river system has been assumed if it has
1. its source in a lake which is fed by a river of another name (e.g. Senguerr River -> Lake Colhué-Huapi -> Chico River)
2. its source at the confluence of two rivers, then following the longer stem (e.g. Amazon -> Ucayali stem)
This in return means, that a longer tributary joining the main river later somewhere along its way is NOT considered a river system (e.g. Tocantins - Araguaia)
N.B. I only considered information currently available in Wikipedia. Most lengths seem quite rounded and it’s highly possible they don’t depict the true length, especially with tons of meanders.
